Chapter 424, The Birth of the Realm Beast
In the endless chaotic void, a majestic, silver-gray creature, its entire body seemingly forged from steel, silently rested hundreds of billions of light-years away from a small universe. At first glance, this creature resembled the fallen King Zhenjia.
At this moment, its divine aura was very similar to that of the creatures in the Cosmic Sea. Anyone who encountered it would think it was a newly ascended cosmic lord from the Cosmic Sea. After all, there were countless cosmic lords in the Cosmic Sea, and no one could be certain that they knew every single one of them or a true god.
Silently gazing at the small universe a hundred million light-years in diameter, hundreds of billions of light-years away, the silver-gray creature split its mouth, revealing smooth and sharp teeth, and inhaled the chaotic air around it, a look of infatuated enjoyment on its face.
The next instant, after absorbing the surrounding chaotic energy, it teleported to a location hundreds of millions of light-years away from the small universe, its eyes gazing at the small universe with fascination.
"Waaah."
"Delicious food ————"
"I smell it—the scent of the origin of a miniature universe—"
"A taste that excites me—"
"The feeling that makes me tremble—"
"Even more delicious than these chaotic currents of air—"
No powerful being in the cosmic sea can devour these chaotic currents; only small universes can, and now even world beasts can. The nest of the Inclined Peak Realm also contains chaotic currents, but they are extremely thin and insufficient to provide sustenance, serving no purpose as a food source.
However, after it left its nest silently, it devoured the chaotic air currents and teleported across distances, eventually arriving here.
A small universe with a diameter of 100 million light-years is undoubtedly a behemoth, but in its eyes, it is just a delicious meal.
"Swallow!"
"Thank goodness I discovered this delicious food first; I absolutely mustn't tell them!"
Its silver-gray appearance subtly changed, its color deepening until finally, this silver-gray creature transformed into a completely black monster.
It was completely naked, a gigantic monster with a jet-black sheen, exuding an overwhelming aura of evil. It had two ferocious heads, one in front and one in back, each with a single eye, a nose, a mouth, a pair of arms, and a pair of long legs. The single eye of the front head gazed at this miniature universe.
Black currents of energy emerged around the monster, while streaks of black light traced arcs emanating from its body, eventually enveloping a small universe hundreds of millions of light-years away.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Rays of light, shimmering with a dark glow, emanated from it, tracing arcs as they extended across the entire miniature universe. Initially clearly visible, these rays gradually blurred and disappeared after extending for hundreds of millions of light-years, as if merging with the void.
"Hoo!" It trembled slightly all over, and involuntarily closed its two single eyes, both heads showing an expression of enjoyment.
Huhuhu~
Brilliant rays of light traveled rapidly along those arcs from hundreds of millions of light-years away, before merging into its body at the "source".
"Is this the taste of the origin of the universe? It's so delicious! So tasty!"
"If Bedi and the others knew, they would definitely come out and fight me for the throne. The entire Cosmic Sea is only this small universe. Even if we devoured them all, it wouldn't take long. We can finish them all and then go back to fight for the throne."
"Mmm~ This is the real treat! I used to live such a miserable life, fighting every day, and sometimes I couldn't even win. Luckily I was fast enough to run away."
With its two single eyes closed, beams of brilliant light traveled from hundreds of millions of light-years away, continuously flowing into its body, replenishing its losses and enriching its essence.
"Once I finish consuming these miniature universes, I'm sure I can become a third-tier being, and then I'll have a chance to compete with Bedi Mohe and the others."
Newly born world beasts are all of the first rank. A second-rank beast can be born by devouring thirty-three of its companions. Previously, it had both won and lost battles with its companions in the nest, but it had not yet successfully devoured enough world beasts. Fortunately, it was fast, and even when it lost occasionally, it was not devoured, so it remained at the second rank.
As for Bedy, he was already at the peak of the third tier, making him one of the strongest world beasts in the nest.
If it hadn't been forced out of its nest this time, it wouldn't have been qualified to compete with Betty and the others.
eat!eat!eat!
It only felt its own weakness; if it had reached the third tier, its devouring speed would have increased significantly.
Within a miniature universe, at its core.
The most dazzling "Ancestral Hall" is where the Firefly Lord, the master of the miniature universe, resides and slumbers. Even in his slumber, he can rapidly improve.
Although this kind of "speed" is no longer useful to him, after all, he was a true god in the first era of reincarnation, and having gone through nearly three eras of reincarnation, he had long since reached his limit. However, sleep is still a pleasure for him.
When the world of Jin descended, he endured countless hardships over billions of epochs, finally obtaining a mechanical treasure and three supreme treasures, which improved his strength. However, he was also frightened by the cruel casualties and dared not enter again.
He knew about the World Beast, but his strength was far too ordinary among True Gods; he was the only True God in the entire Fireworm Clan. Ninth-tier strength was top-tier in the past cosmic seas, but now, facing the World Beast, he wasn't even considered a mid-tier fighter.
In its deep sleep, the firefly, whose entire body was tinged with gray, finally opened its eyes. Its hundreds of hooves and claws supported its body, and each segment of its body was covered with a layer of gray armor.
"This is—" The Firefly Lord's face was full of wrinkles, and a single eye in the wrinkles looked doubtful and uneasy. It had never encountered this feeling before.
"Miniature universe, origin!" Soon, the Fireworm Lord discovered the problem.
The very source that sustains the existence and operation of the entire miniature universe—the source containing the most core and mysterious power—has begun to weaken, as if something is devouring the energy within the source, and at a very rapid pace.
Devour —
Devour?!
The Firefly Lord shuddered, his hundreds of hooves standing on end. He remembered that countless eons ago, when the Jin World descended, the three Ancestral Gods had spoken: the arrival of the World Beasts would bring—devour—disaster—
Could it be that the Beast of the Realm has come to devour his miniature universe?
The thought of this possibility made the Firefly Lord's hundreds of hooves go numb. Although he possessed many extremely powerful techniques, among the current True Gods, he was quite ordinary. Even with his unique mechanical treasure, he was only at the ninth rank.
"But I've never heard of a World Beast appearing in the Cosmic Sea." Hundreds of hooves scurried restlessly, carefully sensing the entire miniature universe. Soon, he sensed the presence of strands of "alien energy" outside the membrane of the miniature universe. "Could it be that the first thing the World Beast will devour upon its birth is my miniature universe?"
"Come quickly!!" A loud shout suddenly rang in the ears of all the universe lords, and the thirteen Fireworm universe lords rushed to the ancestral hall in less than ten seconds.
"The progenitor!"
"Ancestor!" After being tempered by the Jin world, the Fireworm Clan now has only these thirteen Universe Lords left, and they all spoke respectfully at this moment.
"Something is devouring the essence of miniature universes; it's very likely a World Beast!" The Fireworm Lord looked down at the thirteen Universe Lords. "Spread this message at all costs! Beg the Shadow Blade Lord, the Galactic Lord, to save my Fireworm race!"
